blocking of emails from people not on my contact list
I get e-mails with attachments, but in the list of junk e-mail. Each such mail comes from anyone unknown and uncharted three these spam with attachment are received in a day. They are duly blocked deleted each day only to reappear the next day with a different e-mail ID and the field. My block sender and domain and its referral to another name and the incessant also continuous field my blocking. I guess it is an expert in export malware/virus or spywares. I want to get rid of this man by resetting mymail box so that I get emails only of areas with known contacts. I can't find a way to block all mails from unknown areas and people not in my contacts lists in Hotmail
Hi Ananda,
Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.
According to the description, I understand that you are getting spam.
I suggest you to refer to the Microsoft Help Article below and check if that helps.
https://www.Microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/spam-prevent.aspx
I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software. The Microsoft Security Scanner is a security tool free that provides analysis on demand and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malicious software. It works with your current Antivirus software. See the link to download and run the Analyzer:
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Important: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
Hope this information helps. Please let us know if you need any other help with Windows in the future. We will be happy to help you.

How do I advance receipt emails to several people in my contact list?
With other email providers, when I received an email that I want to share (or have generated a new), I have always clicked the button "forward" before selecting the names of the recipients in my address book and click on 'send '. Normally, it is so easy.
With Thunderbird, after clicking 'forward' and starting to type my list of intended recipients, the addresses in the 'to', 'cc' or 'bcc' list turns from black to red on the address line as I add more names and the email goes only to the first name on the list. I've tried clicking on 'forward', bringing up my address book and using the 'control' button to highlight names from list as recipients but, on completion, I cannot find an 'add' or 'send' button to click and clicking on 'write' sees the body of the email disappear.
Normally when you add a recipient to, cc or bcc it should open up a new line. so, you can add another.
You can also make a list in your address book and add to this list.How it works for you?

Hello
Which is called Spoofing and its pretty easy for a spammer to make.
Of course it makes it look like you or the other person who sent the

or even someone could have sent an email on your part for
someone else who has been compromised. Your friend can access to the

fake email from Microsoft or real?
I need to know if a message I received is from Microsoft. It says to download an update for Microsoft Office Starter 2010 - English 'which is now available online', or it is just a scam of fake fishing?
Hello
I think that Microsoft has closed this chapter: no more Office 2010 Staer. You don't need to read the e-mail to be able to know, just by the look at the e-mail address of the sender.
Kind regards.
